Cracked 502 head! Anyone have a set to unload?
I was just informed from the machine shop that I have a craked head and that is why the valve seat dropped. So I am in the market for one or maybe a pair of good heads.

28,
By the time you buy a used one (or two) and pay your machine shop to fix them and set them up for your cam, you would probably be better off just buying two new ones from GM Performance Parts and swapping all your valves etc into them. They are not that expensive if I recall and you dont have to worry about what you are getting.

I bought them for a 509 build then decided to go 557 CI, and bought a set of 315's.
The AFR 305's are brand new, as I said. Please PM me if you're interested.

I have 4 sets of complete marine take off's . They have stainless steel intake valves, inconel exhaust, guide plates, springs, retainers, ect....$400.00 per pair as is. If you want them freshened I can do that for an additional cost.

Thanks for the replies guy's. I will becontacting you for details.
Kidnova, I sent whipple an email to find out if I can even use those without major modifications. I only have a MEFI 1 ECU, so I'm am somewhat limited, or I go really hog wild.
Dean, that is what I was looking for. Any idea how many hours they have and how much it'll cost to freshen them up. Maybe I should at least put in new exhaust valves?

I have a set of heads just removed with 500 hrs on them-they are in great shape. Came off one of my stock 500 EFI's. 2001 model 38' Fountain. I came across a new set for <<< and put them on for giggles. Will sell the set for $600 complete.
